St Francis of Assisi is said to have spent whole nights in prayer, asking two questions: "Who are you, Lord, and who am I?" This edition of 'Words Of Life' grapples with these two life questions.
The God of the Old Testament revealed himself through names that spoke of his nature and character. In leading the people of Israel out of slavery in Egypt, he taught them what it is to be a people called by God. Jesus's actions often raised the question of his identity: who is this man who stills the raging storm, feeds a multitude of people with a few fish, and forgives a notorious sinner?
The apostle John brings both questions together in his letter. He writes to believers, "God is love. When we take up permanent residence in a life of love, we live in God and God lives in us" (1 John 4:16). This edition also looks at Psalms, Proverbs, Pentecost and prayer, all of which are part of the mosaic of who God is and who he calls you to be.
Inspired by the practical spirituality for which the Salvation Army is famous, 'Words Of Life' is great value for money and comes in handy four-month editions.
